Energetic Detox

At the most basic level we are just a beautiful arrangement of atoms moving around in space…lots of space. We take energy in through food, and breath, and our environment. Just think about how you feel being outside in nature on a lovely day, perhaps doing something you love like walking or gardening, alone or in the easy company of a friend. Ahhhh…

We also spend it in what we do and think. Our work takes energy, so do our relationships, and even our thoughts.

Problem is, sometimes our energy drains away needlessly. Just like that dragged out post-Thanksgiving feast feeling, certain people in our lives, and some situations, can leave us exhausted and wondering how our mood could shift from sunny to cloudy just by looking at that dreaded number on our “caller ID”.

Since no one I know has total choice over all the folks they need to be in contact with in their lives, it’s important to learn ways we can keep our atoms spinning happily , in spite of the challenges they might face. After all, self-care is the first step in caring for others.

Friend, fellow yoga teacher, and energy awareness mentor, Thomas Warner offers some suggestions to Holistic Health readers on a process he uses and teaches known as “Energetic Detox”.

Energetic Detox. Huh?

You have probably heard the word “detox” used in the last several years in regards to food, diet plans, and general wellness. There is another form of detox I would like to introduce you to, one involving the energy field of the body. This is Energetic Detox.

If you have done energy healing and clearing, you may have experienced this type of work before or are even practiced it on yourself without really knowing it. Energetic Detox is vital to energy practitioners to keep a clean and clear energy field for the work they do- and it’s important for you, too.

What is Energetic Detox or Clearing?

The idea of Energetic Detox or Energetic Clearing is something that I had been doing on myself for a few years. As a channel and someone with empathic abilities, the process developed out of a need for me to clear my own energy field so that I was not attracting and harboring negative energies to myself and my clients.

Many people have questions about the energy clearing process; in fact, most people are not even aware of its existence. My goal is to help you manage your energy field or aura, and to remove negative blockages and outside influences that may have attached themselves to you. Let’s begin by looking at the aura.

About the Aura

Scientifically speaking, the aura is called one’s electromagnetic field and can be seen and measured throughKirlian photography.

In parapsychology and some spiritual belief systems, an aura is an energetic essence surrounding the body. In spirituality, the aura (or “auric field”) is described as a map of consciousness depicting emotions and energetic strength surrounding the body.

How Do I Find My Aura?

The aura can be perceived by everyone, either instinctively or with practice. Clearing and reinforcing its strength takes only a few moments a day. (You can learn how to do this in a moment.)

Why Do I Want to Clear My Aura?

Your aura has a direct connection to your emotions. Have you ever been in someone’s presence and felt uneasy and couldn’t explain why? Have you ever instinctively not trusted someone?

That is your aura and intuition tuning into another person’s aura.

Things that Drain Your Aura

1.Being overtired.

The energy level of the body as a whole can weaken your aura. Plenty of rest, drinking water, and eating well can strengthen it.

In a typical vampire movie, you learn that a vampire’s main source of life is drinking the blood (life force) of another being.

“Psychic Vampires” can do the same by siphoning energy from someone else’s aura. If you have ever said to yourself, “Wow, that person is sucking the life out of me,” that’s an example of allowing someone to deplete your energy. However, keep in mind that no one can take energy from you without your consent. A person with a strong aura does not allow negativity or “Psychic Vampires” into his/her field. A clear and strong aura is your proverbial garlic.

Just Scratching the Surface

There is much more to know about the Energy Clearing process, and I believe personal experience is your best teacher. I invite you to experience this amazing energetic clearing process for yourself on my website. I offer a free energy clearing booklet and MP3 download of the process and meditation on my web site. Please take advantage of these resources, they can make a huge difference in your life.

If you are interested in delving deeper into the process, I encourage you to schedule a complimentary 30 minute consultation with me and we can establish either a series of one on one sessions or explore other ways to assist you on your wellness path.
